According to the commercial breaks and the stores, the Holiday season is upon us in near full swing. The only thing missing so far (at least in our house) is Santa pulling in at the end of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, then to us it's in full swing. Anyway, last night I was walking…

The Best Place to Shop During a Recession

[Ed. note: Shine user Maggie makes a really good point about rediscovering the wealth of items you have in your house that you may have forgotten about. Sometimes reorganizing a closet or drawer is all it takes to feel like you have a whole new wardrobe. What do you think? Have you ever gone "shopping" in your own home?]
I made this discovery about a year ago. Nearly all the things that I needed were in one spot. Small appliances, software, clothes, shoes, accessories, even cosmetics. Best of all, these items were free! Where is this magical store? Closer than you think.

My secret store...inside my own house. If you look hard enough, you will find your secret store in your own house too.

Think of buried treasure. Rediscovering all those things you bought over the years and stored away is a treasure box of savings or income possibilities. The beauty is, if you can't use it anymore, someone else certainly could. Put your personal inventory on display by having a yard sale. If you don't have the luxury of spending an entire day of your life waiting for browsers consider listing on eBay, Craig's List, or Amazon.
